Hi guys, I've just learned that the Note 2 doesn't offer exclusive access to the partition, hence no mass storage mode when connected over USB. My issue right now is syncing with iTunes via DoubleTwist still goes through as a "Generic Device" but I cannot see the music anywhere on my phone, either through both my music players (Jet Audio/DoubleTwist) or physically in a file.
Any ideas or suggestions of where to find this music would be appreciated.

Turns out it never synced in the end. Got Airsync and worked out beautifully after needing to get my computer to sync through though I will try isyncr to compare.

If there are any issues with iSyncr USB or WiFi, please contact me at [email protected]. Would be happy to help with anything that is going on with our application.
Take it easy.
This new iTunes sync app just came out called 'iThink", check it out.

I was told that the touch can sync up with the computer, share files, get music etc. Not just outlook, but real files. If so, how can you do this?
Thanks in advance

I downloaded Kies and I connected Epic 4G touch through USB and it doesn't recognize it.
It's always "connecting..."
and nothing.
Anyone else with the same problem?
Windows 7 could not find/install a driver either for this phone.

Yes and speaking of AllShare I downloaded it today and installed it on my HTPC and it worked like a charm. I can sit back on the couch and play what ever media I have on my phone on the computer.
I have a HTPC and its connected to my NON Samsung 42 inch 1080P tv. Now my phone cant talk to the tv but it can talk to the PC by having Kies and AllShare installed.
Kies is good to manage the phone via wifi and AllShare is good to play your media on your phone on the NON DLNA supported tv's ( via pc ).
Worked great, played a 1.5 hour movie today and not one skip, hicup or anything using AllShare. Also tested using pictures and music, all worked like a charm.
If you have a DLNA compatable tv from Samsung then you will not need AllShare installed on the pc. The phone will talk directly to the tv.
If you want to "manage" your phone ie sync, copy and move or just do managment type things I would use Kies. If you want to play your media on your tv then use AllShare.
Fyi, if you want to do the traditional usb connection sync, usb debugging in the application development settings must be enabled. Odd, I know, but it is the case.

I know of Klies for syncing files but with my Mac, the only option I have is to see the files from my phone and upload them to my computer but I cannot add files to the phone through Klies.
I was wondering, besides connecting my phone to a USB or taking out my battery and using the MicroSD is there a wireless way for me to sync my music/photos/videos/etc to the Galaxy S2 (through the phone or any other APPS)? I also have a Mac so that might be a thing to know as well.
Also, any apps or is there any way I can get itunes to sync a playlist to the phone instead of me going through all my music files one by one and dragging it into a folder to sync with the S2?
Thank you XDA.
Wow, someone actually likes syncing with iTunes instead of just dragging the files into a folder.
Easiest way would be to use Google Music beta and just sync your music with the cloud, always have access to everything from the cloud. Downsides are everything cloud-related. I understand it can cache things on wifi to keep data usage down, but still not as convenient as having it on the SD.
I also hear that Winamp can sync up your library, but I have no experience with that.
Try the market app iSyncr WiFi and iSyncr for mac.
They used to be only so-so but now there awesome
My only pc is a 27in IMac so I've had to deal with this many times with mobile and iSyncr wins

Klies only lets me take files from my phone but does not let me add music/pics/etc unless i'm doing something wrong.
any advice (im on a mac btw)
Hi!
What desktop apps are available to sync (read: transfer back and forth) music, videos, and photos for the Galaxy S III (which you know only supports MTP; no microSD card)?
I already tried:
1) Kies locks up when downloading podcasts, doesn't "Transfer to Device" (just sits there), and doesn't integrate with Google Play (!).
2) DoubleTwist and Miro (tried both) only support USB Mass Storage and not MTP.
What...is this even possible? I'm a little taken aback, seeing as this phone is purportedly the top Android phone out now. I just want it to sync with Google Play, add some podcasts, and move some photos around. And, honestly, I can just download the files from Google Play, so I just want to add podcasts and move pictures, lol.
Thanks in advance.
AFAIK its Kies or bust. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

Shucks, you might be right. So, I tried Kies again. It actually did "Transfer to Device!" But, for whatever reason, it took about a few minutes to start (some file I had was missing and it got stuck).
And, for whatever reason, now Podcasts are downloading, too! Humph...maybe I was having a bad day with it. But, no Play Store integration: I guess I don't really need that.
Thank you for the reply; it motivated me to try again!

Check out easy phone sync... It's not available in some regions. For music, I use easy phone tunes to sync with itunes.

So I just recently divorced myself from my iPod and iTunes. My S3 is now my primary music player both at home and in the car. I keep my music in a folder on my laptop, and am looking for a program/app that will allow me to sync my S3 with said folder via USB and WiFi. I must have the option of syncing over USB since I will not always have access to WiFi. I tried Kies and could never get it to connect to my phone (which is rooted and may be the cause of my problem). Plus I keep hearing that Kies is a steaming turd. Cheetah Sync seems like it might do the trick but is WiFi only. I should also note that I want the ability to two-way sync so if I delete a file from the phone it will remove it from the folder on the laptop and vice/versa..
Thanks in advance..
Try giving this a shot:

Thanks, but I'm not using iTunes.. Just trying to sync my phone with a folder on my laptop..
Do you have a windows vista or 7 laptop? If so, you can connect your phone via usb and select MTP as your device. You'll be able to treat your phone as an external storage by simply dragging and dropping files.

I mean this is ridiculous that a top tier phone is so difficult (impossible) to sync playlists on, I am also pretty knowledgable regarding digital music, phones, and computers and still cannot get this working after months. Using MTP i can occasionally get ONE playlist to sync using winamp but when i try to do more it will erase the other ones or clear them out. I then got an app that puts my external SD card ino mass storage mode and that almost works but after adding about 20 songs to a playlist only 5 or so actually showed up. Doubletwist does not work. Windows Media player did not work. Using Kies it puts the songs on my phone but not the playlists.
If anybody can actually do this please share how. I used to have a captivate and this was as simple as it should be. So frustrating that i have spent this much time on it and still haven't gotten anywhere.
I just copy music over WiFi with es file explorer. Shared off some folders on my Windows box and I'm good to go

it's not getting the music on there that is the problem it is the actual playlists. I want to be able to go through all my music on my computer and make playlists then transfer them onto my phone and it is damn near impossible.

hm, i never got around to it myself, i just dump all my music on a 64GB MicroSD and there they are, but my mom sync'ed playlists i think with windows media player on my old GS3. MTP mode, debug in developers options ON.
It's more about what program you're using. I personally use isyncr. Though I find it strange that winamp isn't working.
Try "easyphonesync" from the playstore.
i'll check out a couple of the suggestions. It's actually not even so much an issue of 'syncing' the playlists either, more so just being able to transfer them one way from my computer to my phone
+1 for rsync
I shopped around for a couple of weeks for software to sync my playlists AND music. (I'm on Mac OS)
I couldn't find anything better. Give it a shot.
